Testimonials

Laurie has helped me find meaning and purpose to what I do. She has taught me how to use my core values to make decisions; and to not make decisions out of fear or because I ‘should’. Through this process Laurie has helped me discover who I am and where I am going; it’s quite powerful, really. I am aware, now, of the freedom I have to choose and to change; freedom I didn’t really recognize before Laurie’s coaching. With Laurie’s help, I have created a personal mission statement.
It unraveled for me a very definite path that helped me recognize why I do what I do and what energizes me - Laurie will call this ‘this juice of life’. So eye opening and enlightening!

Sean StorckOwner, Reason Financial

“From the get-go there was an ease to working with Laurie. She allowed me to get out my story without interruption, which drove the rest of our work together. I can say she gave pertinent and on-point advice, she did. I can say she gave me exercises to use on my prospective client calls. She did. I can even say she gave me homework to help me course correct - taking into account where I've been and defining where I want to go. But with all of this, what really made me pause, was Laurie saying, you are who you are, and proceeding to work within the dynamic of me. We often spend our lives twisting and turning to the experts who tell us we are not enough.
Laurie acknowledges that you are enough and provides you with the skills to enhance who you are, in your own skin. I felt defined from our work.”

I would absolutely recommend coaching, and have, to friends and family. I think it was a great use of my time and brain energy. It allowed me to focus on myself in the present, and not dwell on the past. That was a key factor for me. It is not often that I take time to ask myself thought-provoking questions that can help change my outlook on life. Key takeaway for me: I am in charge of my priorities, my passions and how my time is spent. Another lightbulb moment for me was going through the personality/value cards, and ranking my value system. I would not have expected to find that out about myself without coaching. As a result, I am pivoting my life in a direction I want, while still prioritizing my family. I have started a new business and am saying “no” to things that I don’t value. In the most polite way. I don’t spend quality time with people who don’t fill me up. Both intellectually and emotionally. Laurie is amazing! Such a positive experience with her style and energy. She was born to do this.”
